cooking

I am going to be branching out and starting putting a few cooking recipes on here.

I got this

for my birthday.

I have wanted it for a while. My good friend surprised me with it. As I try it , I plan to put the good (and maybe the bad) on here.

My husband is coming home soon and my cooking and baking will be picking back up.

Bunny cupcakes

This is what I did for the kids for Easter.

I used reduced sugar cake mix and it is not bad. I frosted with white icing. The ears are big marshmallows with frosting and sprinkles on it. Eyes are mini chocolate chips. Nose is butterscotch chips. Cheeks are mini marshmallows. Whiskers are pull and peel twizzlers.

Simple. Easy. Cute.

Chocolate Torte

I was put in charge for desserts for Easter. I decided to use this to try something new. SO I made two desserts. One for the adults. And one for the kids.

For the adults I made this . I was concerned when I saw it that it would be labor intensive, but it really was not that bad.

After I put it together like they said I garnished it a bit. With frosting in a spray can. How cool is that.

I would definitely make this again. I may put some raspberries on and maybe some powered sugar.
